Came with business associates for dinner. The Szechuan beef and Imperial Noodles were very good, the green curry and pad Thai were not that good. Very limited wine selection. I wouldn't make a special trip here as it's just ok.

Giraffe is in fact a chain serving Asian style fusion food. They used to be a great value, less so now - the mains became smaller while the prices went up. Still, not a bad place, and definitely a good choice for someone who is looking for a place in Carmel Center that doesn't serve falafel. Skip the sushi, though,... More

Giraffe is good for fusion Asian, but if you are looking for truly authentic Asian, take a pass. Nothing special about the decor. Service is usually reasonable.

If you're hungry for delicious Asian food, a pleasant and professional service, this is the place. This restaurant chain is known in Israel and its northern branch is among the best. Do not miss a visit there. Suitable for tourists

great sushi and ample wine list - very cozy place to enjoy dinner. The wait staff were cheerful. The younger crowd goes here, but don't let that keep you away!

I found the pad thai to be a bit bland. My wife had a rice dish with eggplant it wasn't very good either.

Giraffe is one of my favorite places when I come to Haifa They have a nice service, good prices, and great food. I especially like the seafood soup which is their version of a traditional Tom-Yam soup. The only bad thing I can say about it is the design which in my personal opinion is too cold and industrial, but... More
